Re: Pb avec Vim
[ Il serait plus poli de poster sous un nom plus décent que Kiouk. ] Kiouk [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Thu, Oct 03, 2002: Avec Vim (sur la console) je n'arrive pas à activer la coloration Syntaxique. J'ai essayer de trouver dans la doc mais ça n'a pas été fructueux. Il faut évidemment que la coloration soit activée (« :syntax on » pour l'activer), que vim détecte que c'est bien d'un mail dont il s'agit (ft=mail). Mais il faut aussi que le terminal supporte le bon nombre de couleurs (t_Co=16). Pour vérifier les deux derniers points, il faut taper « :set » et pour changer ces options, « :set t_Co=8 » (pour Putty par exemple). Si ça ne marche toujours pas après, c'est probablement un problème d'installation de vim. Avec GVim j'ai bien la coloration syntaxique mais je n'arrive pas à activer le jeu de couleur de mon choix par défaut (Dark Blue). Il suffit de sourcer (avec « source » - cf. :help source) le fichier de coloration. -- Loïc Minier [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: reply-to alternatives
On Oct 02 at 21:08, Will Yardley spoke: [snipping a lot] Most mail clients either blindly honor Reply-To: OR give the user an option (or allow you to configure it either way). And maybe there are also mailers which expect another header rather than Reply-To. So if I knew those I could try to be compatible with them. Reply-To is the only one that's an internet standard AFAIK, and the only one that's widely implemented (for email, that is - Usenet has 'Followup-To', which is what Mail-Followup-To is based on). You should be reasonably safe setting 'Reply-To'. The majority of ansers I get in deed come from mail clients that do honor Reply-To. But occasionally I realize that I get answers at the address that's not mentioned in the Reply-To header. Now if the only reason Reply-To is not honored is the configuration of the one's MUA that's answering me, I have to accept that. But if there is _another reason_ for this and I can do something about it, I'd just like to know... -Hanspeter

I have, for a longtime, wanted something like that. It might even have been
the reason I joined this mailing list. My understanding, however, is that
curses/slang interferes with doing it directly.
It would be nice, though, to have something like zsh's %{ %} that mutt
would interpret as just send this to stdout and don't worry about it
(after, of course, expanding enclosed expressions such as mbox name). Any
developers/hackers (note the crosspost) like the idea? I'll try doing it

Module to add mailinglist-names from the header in .muttrc
Hi, I found these days that there is a procmail-module which can do the following: o *pm-jalist.rc* -- Subroutine to extract mailing list name from message. Do you need to add new recipe to your .procmailrc every time you subscribe to new mailing list? If you do, take a look at this module, which examines the message and defines variable `LIST' to hold the mailing list name. You can use it directly to save the messages adaptively to correct folders. No more hand work and manual storing of mailing list messages. Is there something similar no more hand work for/in mutt?

WTF is your problem dude... solving *your* problem? possible solutions: (1) read your personal mail from home. (2) read your personal with some other mail client. (3) read your personal on another system. you might be able to switch the system and/or the client at work. and i suppose you have full flexibility to use whatever system at home. unix or not. and there are public systems with shell accounts. my point: this is *not* a _mutt_ problem. mutt problems can be solved by installing it differently in the first place or by changing its configuration files. you might also get a solution by installing another program - but then it is usually a problem of installing and configuring that. however: using windows xp at work with mutt is just a workaround to the real problem. so do not make it a mutt problem just because you see mutt on windowsxp as the only solution. opening the browser is *not* a mutt problem. on unixes this problem is left to urlview. SecureCRT was mentioned as *one* solution as an interface to the browser. did you try that yet? besides, i do not think that the work place is supposed to give internet access to employess for reading their personal email. but if your boss agrees to that - fine! now, maybe you can ask your boss to allow a pc to run some kind of free unix system with elm, mutt, mush, nail, or pine for reading mail. or maybe just open ssh for outbound connections. then again, this might clash with security and the fire wall of the company. it all depends. usually the best solution is the one used at home. so you are looking for better ways to start the browser? fine. make urlview start some script then which accesses the browser. this might be a script in some ported shell or window's shell. but the script will run on windows, so it certainly won't be a mutt config script. this is not mutt any more. therefore it is not a mutt problem. see? think differently. the solution is elsewhere. and discussing further problems resulting from this can be discussed elsewhere, too. such scripts can be the solution which can be used by a helper application to mutt - but they do not solve a problem with mutt itself. i certainly welcome solutions such like these scripts, esp on some webpage - and i will also link to these. but the discussion of such problems which cannot be solved by changing mutt's configuration files *only* should probably be discussed elsewhere - and not here. discussing the configuration of urlview might still be on topic here (depending on your definition) - but scripting windowsxp is definitely not on topic. remember: mutt is *not* a browser interface. and it is *not* a shell, either. that's what i am pointing out. i hope you can deal with that. now, there are many newsgroups on the microsoft news server. i'll attach a list for you. these groups *might* be appropriate to configure your windowsxp: microsoft.public.windowsxp.configuration_manage microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize microsoft.public.windowsxp.general microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely i do not claim to know whether these newsgroups can really help you - but then again M$ does not pay me for solving your windowsxp problem. your problem is an windowsxp problem. or maybe it is a problem with your computers available at work. but these are not on topic here. still, i hope that the list of newsgroups can help you find people with knowledge about windowsxp scripting and access to the browsers used on that system. good luck!

Problems using mutt w/ SSH and preconnect
I'm using mutt to access three different accounts via IMAP over an SSH tunnel. Because I have three separate accounts (on two different servers), I'm using three different preconnect strings and three different ssh tunnels. Here's an example of one: #tunnel over ssh unset preconnect set preconnect=ssh -f -C -q -L 1432:mail.myserver.com:143 \ mail.myserver.com sleep 5 The other tunnels are on 1430 and 1431, in case that matters. This works great, for the most part. However, when switching back and forth between mailboxes (via a macro), I will get an error message in mutt saying, Connection to localhost closed. I can switch back to the account from which I just came, but I have to restart mutt to be able to get into any other accounts. When this problem occurs, if I suspend mutt and telnet to localhost:1432, I get a response from the IMAP server, just like I'd expect, so the ssh tunnel is still there and working fine. Thus, I think this is a mutt problem. I've tried increasing the sleep 5 value, even though I doubt that's the problem. I'm not sure what else to try. I cannot reliably reproduce this problem, but it seems to be related to long periods of inactvity on an account. However, I've left an account for 45 minutes at a time, come back and accessed it just fine, while other times, I can't access the account after 15 minutes of inactivity. In each and every case, however, when I've tried telnetting to the local tunnel port, I've *always* received a response from the imap server. Any suggestions? --kurt

My /etc/urlview/url_handler.sh on the Debian box: [snip] http_prgs=3D/usr/bin/X11/opera:PW /usr/bin/w3m:XT=20 [snip] plus the mutt setting macro index \cb |urlview\n 'Extrahiere Links (call urlview to extract URLs = out of a message)' macro pager \cb |urlview\n 'Extrahiere Links (call urlview to extract URLs = out of a message)' and hitting Ctrl b in a message. Alternatively you could you use links version 2; both w3m and links support ssl and pictures!, but none of them JavaScript (at least to my best knowledge). Netrik is said to support JavaScript but thinks my HTML 4.01 validated pages contain too many errors to be displayed at all. Maybe a later version will is more forgiving to valid HTML :) -Andre --jousvV0MzM2p6OtC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9nO2Smlbrvn+0waMRAm7HAJ9ZyuJCV/QdOTPGi1RBcWiHiOHD1gCfVe92 W+CYrNgKicH732JhEYr9JYM= =uTMN -END PGP SIGNATURE- --jousvV0MzM2p6OtC--
macros and folder changing
Hi- I'm wondering if it's possible to define a macro to switch to a particular folder, and if so, how. Thanks, Cayenne

Sure: macro index \e1 change-folder+one\n change to +one folder macro index \e2 change-folder+two\n change to +two folder macro index \e3 change-folder+three\n change to +three folder macro index \e4 change-folder+four\n change to +four folder macro index \e5 change-folder+five\n change to +five folder If you have some options set which ask you questions, you might need to adjust them to get this to work in all cases.
Re: macros and folder changing
Thanks. The brackets were what I needed. Does anyone know of somewhere that explains things like that? I can find terse overviews (the manual), careful instructions on how to do simpler things, and a plethora of examples. Examples are nice, but so are explanations. Is there anywhere that someone has written something that contains for example more than half a sentance on what angle brackets do, or at least a clear half a sentance geared towards people new to muttrc files? -Cayenne
